You might notice that I used a slightly different inking style; I have been working with this for a few days and have noticed that not only is there marked improvement, it has made inking much less of a chore for me. It probably looks a little rough right now, but I do plan on using it for at least one (upcoming) arc, to see if I can get it refined.

Um… Peanut’s is above Grape’s. And crossing tails is a big no-no. To put Peanut’s bubble to the left of Grape’s I’d have to make the tail round Grape’s bubble. Though I didn’t do it –not because I thought it might look awkward– but because I did those bubbles in a bit of a hurry.

It’s an artist’s style. When I draw cars, I tend to make them look more outrageous than they are. I posted the link as my website. Don’t worry rick, I’m not much art competition, mostly cuz I can’t do colors.

Well yeah it did feel bit wierd at first, but this style is nice AND if it makes drawing easier for you it’s a double win. Just keep it up Rick, we’ll see where’s this goin.
Would’ve made much more sense to me if there was an actual trail of furr on panel 3, but still nice.
… A whole book? Why the heck does someone need to make so many jokes about ONE subject? O_o”

And now part of me is wondering if animals even have fun at hide and seek when they can smell the others… but it’s their house so both their smells are everywhere… and their hair should sort of be everywhere too… um…. unless someone vacuumed right before the game… I’ll be over there.

Huh, new inking style? Looks like the lines are more calligraphic–I like it. (It’s one of the reasons I love manga/anime–the lineart is sooo nice, and they help make things work that normally don’t as well with straight-thickness lines.) Yes, it is a little rough, but I’m sure it can become refined. (As it looks now, it does almost seem Flash-y–almost.)

My question though, Rick, is how this is easier than the other kind. The only thing I can possibly think of is doing something with pen pressure using, like, a Wacom tablet (something I sadly cannot do with my tablet PC), and just tracing over the lines.

Can’t wait to see how this style pans out. I remember how your last style change came out well, so here’s hoping! ^^

They’re playing Hide and Seek, right, so when Grape goes looking for Peanut, she notices a fur-trail, leading to the closet, opens it and tells him to start brushing his fur more often, cause he’s sheding a lot…
